Wheel Fitment???

Before any flamage I got these wheels for a very good price I COULD not resist. Here is the scoop!

98 s14

Extended studs all around

20 mm spacers all around

Megan Track Coilovers

BBS CH 18x8.5 +35

It looks like these wheels will be sticking out a little in the front and I am wondering whether anyone knows if they will rub or if the fenders will need to be pulled/rolled??

PS ( i needed the spacers to give more clearance between the shocks and the wheel)

ANY THOUGHTS ARE WELCOME OFFSET? WHEELS? STYLE?

yea 18x8.5 +35 is not so cool
my grenades are gonna be 18x9+20 all round and they sit flush with the fender
plus you would have to have some big fender mods for 10.5+15 up front haha

i say sell them, make some profit, get some decently sized wheels if you want aggresive fitment, if you like BBS wheels get some LMs in 9 or 10 under 20 offset.

ya a steal, then you could sell the steal for a profit, and buy some wheels that fit decent/look decent/perform decent...but besides my comments you asked for no they wont need a roll or pull

descent is like when you land a plane or go down a mountain. decent* is the word you're looking for
glad it looks good. post up some pics
